Mark Isham - The Mist

Without expounding on the quality of the titular movie, one can thoroughly enjoy the wailings and oozings of the soundtrack, which retains its menace when seperated from the flickering motion images which birthed it. Our patron spent many a prolix syllable describing the mad swirling dance of Azathoth the demon sultan's army of amorphous pipers, and this Isham character has done an admirable job of capturing a close approximation of it - or perhaps as close as human tongues and hands can produce.
Won't somebody see a lady home?

  1. I liked it. Great monster designs. Nostalgic vibe. No shaky cam. Grim ending.

  2. I'm about 50/50 on it myself, but that ending was brutal.
